Dexter Ahlgren, Engineer for the applicant, requested a modification to the pathway conditions. He felt that condition 6 a) would be better addressed when the lands came in for subdivision. He recom. nded the re- moval of condition 6 b) , stating that the pathway did not go anywhere, and that property owners in the area should be heard before any decision was made on such a pathway requirement. Commissioner Schick stated that the pathway recommendations had come to the Commission from the Pathway Committee, and the Chairman was in the audience, and might present the Committee's views. Mrs. Elizabeth Fiksdahl, Chairman of the Pathway Committee, addressed Council regarding the Committee's rationale, pointing out the present pathway along Sunnerhill, which was along the top of the bank. The concern of the Comaittee was the possibility of future erosion problems which might eliminate the pathway. Item 6 b) dealt with a pathway to St. Nicholas school. Meakin from the Floor: Air.
